Recent polling shows that a substantial percentage of Americans perceive a serious threat to democracy, with 76% overall and varying belief among party lines. Politically motivated violence is viewed as a significant issue by 73% of respondents. Concurrently, President Trump's job approval stands at 43%, with criticism of political leadership prevalent across the board. Furthermore, Senate Republicans are working to pass a major tax and spending bill amidst internal divisions and opposition from Democrats, focusing on considerable financial implications such as tax cuts and potential Medicaid cuts.
A new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll reveals that 76% of Americans believe democracy is facing a serious threat. That percentage includes 89% of Democrats, 80% of Independents and 57% of Republicans.
73% view politically motivated violence as a significant issue. These findings emerge during President Trump's second term, when the U.S. is notably polarized.
Right now, only 44% of Democrats approve of their party's approach in Congress, compared to 73% of Republicans who approve of their party.
Senate Republicans aim to pass Trump's significant tax and spending bill later today. Much of the fight is centered on the megabill's provision to extend tax cuts.
